    Who is into antique/classic cars and trucks? My grandfather just bought this 1928 Ford AA stakebed truck. It is nice. Runs great. It's got me in the mood for old vehicles again.

    I have a 66 Cutlass. Needs restored but it moves under its own power. I am a Mechanic I have been a muscle car guy all my life.

    I split from the path and built a 1990 Toyota PU. I put a 3800 supercharged Buick motor in the bed. I used the setup from a 96 riviera. After I blew the tired motor up. I Rebuilt it. Now pushing 500hp to the ground, still gets about 30mpg. I can drive it anywhere. The front wheel drive trans does not like all that power though. It has been rebuilt 2 times.

    My father-in-law owns Indy Street Rods and Classics so I get to see the build process in depth on a lot of classic cars. It is amazing how much work goes into building one. They are currently working on a 69' Judge Pro Touring and just finished up a 32' 5 window with blower motor. Will post pics when I figure out how.

    I drove a red 1965 Chevy Imnpala convertable in high school, sold it to help pay for college.

    I then had a 1965 Chevy Corvair Corsa convertable about 10 years ago and that thing turned scratched heads. Looked like this but black interior.

    Whew! That photo takes me back. I owned about 7 Corvairs over my younger days. The last one was a highly modified Corsa 4 speed. Now I wish I had the money for a project car. Hopefully before I retire, though.

    Untill i moved out of state we raced our model T at the Newport hillclimb.

    I have several friends that live for that hill climb. They have un-told fortunes in their cars.

    1st wife had a 1968 Corvair Turbo 4 speed convertible. It looked like the one pictured but with white interior. I put the biggest Rally wheels that would fit under it. Great car....her...not so much.

    I have a 1931 Ford Model A closed-cab pickup. Original, unrestored (but a lot of fixin' up over the years), runs like a swiss watch and hauls 1/2-yard of mulch at a time.

    That sounds like a very quality combined stable. If you could, some pics would be awesome.
